During a discussion with a wanna-be Bollywood director, he expressed his disappointment over the recently released film Shootout At Lokhandwala and the surety of this commercial flick taking a plunge nose down at the Box Office. But then again this is India, in a country where movies like Ramgarh Ke Sholay go on to become blockbuster hits, anything can be expected. And so it comes as no surprise that a third grade film like Shootout At Lokhandwala is receiving an overwhelming response at the Box Office.
We people than very conveniently blame the likes of Karan Johar, Yash Chopra and Sanjay Gupta who more than often showcase big budget, multi-starrers without the backing of a decent storyline or narration. But if you think from their point of view, they are churning out films as per the masses’ needs. After all everyone involved, be it behind the camera or infront of it are here for cashing in the moolah, creative appreciation has very few takers these days.
So when you watch a film like Cheeni Kum (or even Bheja Fry for that matter), you can’t help but wonder why the heck have these people invested their time and money in making artistic cinema and not commercial bullshit.

“A pretty face supported by a good body can take one a very long way in Bollywoodâ€, well till sometime back this statement stood true only for Hindi Film Actresses but it seems Mr. John Abraham is all set to change the trend.

So what if he can’t act, at least he knows how to sport his underwear in style. Me think he is so apt for those Silent Porn flicks, what say you?
